I was born in Upstate New York. and my parents had my brother, but he is really tall, he is like 6’ 5”. So that’s him, and then they had me, two years later. And my dad loves Subarus, and he’s also a chemist. He has lots of really cool patents for things like polymers – that I don’t even understand.

And my mom worked in lots of different things, but mostly she’s just a bad ass. When we were little, my parents got divorced, but that worked out all right, because my dad remarried, and his wife has big boobies that I would put my face in when I was sad. And my mom has been with her boyfriend like ever. So everyone wound up, pretty happy.

So where are my siblings? And when I was little, I used to like to do gymnastics, and dance, and I played the clarinet, and the piano, and I wanted to work with animals, I played soccer even though I didn’t know how to play soccer.

And I had love for the animals, the furry things, I love them so much. and every birthday I had, I used to blow out the candles and wish for a puppy or a kitty, but I couldn’t have one, because my mom was really allergic to them. But my dad got us a cat, and his name was Benni, and he absolutely hated us. And he would scratch up our faces, and that sucked.

But I also loved to play baseball. My dad with his awesome mustache was our coach, and he taught me everything, except one he was like maybe you should play softball, I was like why? Like I love baseball. And he was like, well you’re distracting the boys. So it’s valid.

One of my favorite memories from growing up at our lake house, and we will go swimming and fishing, canoeing and one time, we were sitting on the fire pit, the snake came out. my dad killed it with a knife. And we are like, whoa dad you are such the man?

And then another time, I did a backflip off of the dock, and hit my face on ladder. And then that’s why I broke my nose, and I have that weird T shape scar on my face, so stop making fun of me.

And growing up, I also had a best friend and her name was Britney, and we did everything together. And I was really sad in 7th grade, because I realized that everyone in my school was really smart, and that made you cool. And I was sort of just regular, and I took regular classes. And sort of felt like I didn’t fit in with everyone else. So sad Jenna was sad.

I also really liked this boy, who didn’t like me back, and I would go wait outside his locker every morning before homeroom, and in one quarter where there are 60 days, I had 52 tardies, because I was just waiting for him in his locker, and he also used to call me flat chested, which used to make me cry, but I did keep some notes and stuff and other people, everything that’s ever mattered to me in a little shoebox, that’s because I’m sentimental like that.

Then when I get to high school, my best friend dropped out, I was really lonely, but in 9th grade, I met this boy named William in gym class. We wound up dating each other for four years, and we eventually broke up to go to school, but that was really nice. And on my regular people classes, and regular things decided to pay off, because I went to college, and all I wanted to do was go to Big City.

So I didn’t know what I was going to do, but I just wanted to get out. So I went to Boston when I was 17, I didn’t know what I wanted to study, I didn’t know anyone, had no friends, and on my 18th birthday, I just laid on my dorm room and cried.

Sad Jenna was really sad, but it didn’t last for too long, because I played softball. and so I got lots of friends, and for the first time in my entire life, I felt comfortable being exactly who I was, and being weird, and it was the greatest feeling ever.

I also got a MacBook computer, and I taught myself how to edit with iMovie and I used to make these funny videos for myself. But I didn’t think anyone else would ever think they are funny. Then I went to grad school, and I got a Masters degree.

When I was 22, and I thought my life was like starting, I was so excited. Me and my friend were getting into Texas, then she bailed on me the last minute, and I thought my whole life was over, like you ruined everything, and all my weird part-time jobs like Go-go dancing and bartending, and working in a tanning salon were my full-time jobs.

And I had no job in my field, and I was so sad and confused. And then one day, I was locked out of my apartment, and this boy was moving in upstairs, and I was like, I’ve never seen you here before, and he was like, I’ve never seen you here before. And I was like – that’s because you’re moving all right, whatever; you’re weird. I got to go, and so I jumped in through my window, and he just stood there and watched me, but I guess that was enduring, because we dated, and we even started to a little dog family together, and moved in, and we had family.

And then my whole life changed, because I got a job at Barstoolsports.com. You know the owner David Portnoy asked me if I wanted to be his assistant, and I cried, because I was so excited and he taught me everything about the Internet, like how to be funny, and how to blog, and how everything worked.

And one day on my way out from the office, I got the idea; how to trick people into thinking you’re good looking video. And so I made it, and Dave even put it on the website, and more people saw it, and I was so excited and nervous. And he gave me my own website to write. So I did that for like six months. Except that I realized, that wasn’t really making me happy, and I wanted to make videos, and he sort of knew that too, but we could never see eye-to-eye; sort of ended badly, but… [Thank you Dave]

And then I was back to really sad Jenna. No job. no direction. Don’t know what I’m doing. So I just decided to make videos again after six months of not doing it, cause it’s all I liked doing. And then I found the YouTube community. This cool, amazing group of people that had these awesome videos, except they all lived in Los Angeles, and I lived in Boston, so I went to visit and I loved it.

And then a year later, I saved up enough money, and I asked Max to go with me, and he did. And so we moved to Sunshine Land. But as you guys know, Max and I broke up about four months ago, and it was really sad, and it’s been really hard, because I don’t really know anyone here, but life is complicated, and you never know what’s going to happen, but if it’s meant to be, it will be. And if it’s not, it won’t.

But now I’m sad Jenna again, and I don’t know what I’m doing and I think if I had it all figured out, I would be doing something wrong, because I think it makes it, so that you can’t grow, and you have to be confused in life or else you won’t grow. But all I know is that, YouTube makes me really happy, and all of you make me really happy, and without your love and support, I would be lost.

And I always thought that if you someone you love or something you love, then life would be easy, but it’s not. And I still have no idea what I want to do with my life. I’m more confused now than I’ve ever been, but your love and support has changed my entire life, and just seeing your comments, I realize all I ever want to do is make people happy.

And so now, for my future, I have no idea what’s going to happen, even if YouTube or anything doesn’t work out, I have big plans of getting a farm and filling it with animals, and then lay in the middle of the farm, and just being covered in puppies and kitties and sheep all day, everyday. and I wish this video had a happier ending, but all I do know is; thank you for teaching me who I am. I love you. Also… [dick]
